  • Abstract
    In this paper we describe the application of Hydrodynamic Bearings (HDBs) to conventional products and discuss the technical distinctions of HDBs between HDD applications and another applications. We also report on numerical analytical and experiments aimed at solving the characteristic problems of high-speed HDDs
